Hey guys. Thanks for all the help around here.

There's still a little tweaking a lot of growing out to do on my 10g hex, but it's coming along. The hex format is a PITA, but I had it lying around and my 90g isn't plant compatible due to its current residents. It's been fun and maybe someday I'll be able to plant the 90g. There's no way my gf would've let me get a third tank, so this had to be it.

The inhabitants are 10 neon tetras, 3 oto cats and 10 RCS.

As for plants I have java fern, cabomba furcata, rotala, bacopa monnieri, hairgrass, some naja grass clippings that may or may not stay, and one unidentified hitchhiker that came in with the java fern I got from the LFS.

Here are a few pics.

Full tank:
I plan on replacing the java fern in the top right corner with some java moss when it arrives.

Oto Cat:

RCS:

Thanks for looking!
